We heard this go down over the scanner Tuesday afternoon. It’s an interesting story especially when paired with the tale of a homicide in Century City.
Here’s some of the Rosemead tale:
ROSEMEAD – A man was stabbed and robbed of a briefcase full of diamond engagement rings Tuesday, authorities said.
The crime was reported about 5:20 p.m. in the 3600 block of Rosemead Boulevard, Los Angles County sheriff’s Lt. Mike O’Shea said.
A man was approached by three Latino men wearing bandanas over their faces and dark hooded sweat shirts, O’Shea said.
One of the suspects pulled a knife and stabbed the victim in his left arm and the robbers grabbed his briefcase, which was filled with diamond engagement rings, O’Shea said.
The victim is believed to be either a jewelry dealer or maker who stopped for dinner on his way to meet clients, he added.
Then there’s this story from Century City:
CENTURY CITY, Calif. (KABC) — Police continue to hunt for a man who fatally stabbed a woman inside a Century City parking garage.
Police were called to the Watt Plaza parking garage on 1875 Century Park East at about 6:35 p.m. Monday on a report of an assault with a deadly weapon.
The victim was identified Tuesday as Pamela Fayed, a 44-year-old mother of two young daughters. She lived in a Camarillo neighborhood.
L.A. police say she was stabbed in the neck by an assailant on the third-floor level of a Century City parking structure that serves the Watt Plaza Office Tower in Century Park East Monday night.
The media stated the female victim in Century City owned a Jewelry business, wonder if that was the motive of murder/211, both victims stabbed. Hope there is a follow-up on stories.
